BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: The Legislature in the so-called "White Bloc," Aliya Nuseif, has said on Saturday that Iraq does not need the measures
taken by Kuwait to expand the trade exchange between the two countries, confirming that such improvement in the joint trade relations depends on
Kuwait's stopping of construction of its Mubarak Port on the Gulf.
"Iraq does not need measures to facilitate the entrance of Iraqis into Kuwait, that the Kuwaiti Ambassador to Baghdad, Ali al-Mu'min, talked about,
as much as a decision that it stops work in Mubarak port, that shall extend the Kuwaiti coast for 500 kms, whilst the Iraqi coast would be limited in
an area of 60 kms only," Nuseif said in a statement, copy of which was received by Aswat al-Iraq news agency.
"It is clear that the Kuwaiti Ambassador was trying to sense the reaction of some Iraqi government circles, through his said statement, in which he
talked about facilitating the entrance of Iraqi merchants into Kuwait, which we shall reject such twisted methods to undermine the right of Iraq to
have a legal water course through the construction of the Faw Port, Iraq had announced since 2005," Nuseif added.
She said that "Iraq won't be able to achieve economic relations with the State that plays its role in the international fields, secretly and openly,
in order to keep Iraq under the power of the UN Charter No.
7, imposing economic sanctions on Iraq, despite the end of its causes."
Nuseif concluded her statement, saying that "Those behind the manufacture of decision in Kuwait shall notice, sooner or later, the size of the
failure of its policy of arrogance and being stubborn, thus losing the opportunity to mend the relations between both countries."
The Kuwaiti Ambassador to Baghdad had announced on Friday that "his country had taken administrative and legal measures to facilitate the
entrance of Iraqi merchants into Kuwait, in order to expand trade exchange between both countries."
